A macronutrient made from amino acids that supports muscle, organs, enzymes and many repair processes.

Also known as: dietary protein

A macronutrient made from amino acids that supports muscle, organs, enzymes and many repair processes.

Why Protein matters

Adequate protein helps preserve or build muscle alongside resistance training and can improve meal fullness.

A practical example

Including a meaningful protein source such as eggs, yoghurt, fish, tofu or lean meat at each main meal.

Common mistake

Assuming more protein automatically produces more muscle without progressive training and enough total energy.

Keep the context in mind.

Training and nutrition terms describe general principles. The right exercise, intensity or food target still depends on your experience, health, goals and schedule.

Personalised coaching

Apply the principle to your own training.

A definition is useful, but your programme still needs to match your experience, schedule, recovery and goals.
